Right... know thy history.

What's with the all the nuclear threats lately? They all step into North Korean bandwagon and start threatening each other.

When Trump can run for presidency, such people can also become general.

The man has been in thmilitary much longer than Trump in politics. You've reversed 'causality'

What's with the all the nuclear threats lately? They all step into North Korean bandwagon and start threatening each other.

That was in 2005. But in the context of SCS, still relevant, I think.

Why care ? As Russia says "there are no Russian soldiers in UKR"

After the Korean war, US generals lost so much influence after Macarthur. Power has gone from generals to, SecDef McNamara, and then to State department, like Kissinger, and national security advisors. From Robert Gates. "Duty memoirs". Libya was decided by Clinton and national security advisor rice. Sec def and pentagon has lost a lot of power over 60 years. Generals are just propaganda outfits now.

It got so bad during internal debates over whether to intervene in Libya in 2011 that Gates says he felt compelled to deliver a “rant” because the White House staff was “talking about military options with the president without Defense being involved.”

US army is very small

Only USAF and US navy can fight Russia

 

[Sher-e-India]

Russia will annihilate US military forces within two minutes. So US better be careful whom she takes on

US Army=460.000 personel

Russian Army=230.000 personel

 

[Stephen Cohen]

US Army=460.000 personel

Russian Army=230.000 personel

US will never fight a Tank battle with Russia

It will be a Air and Naval battle

 

[KAL-EL]

Russia will annihilate US military forces within two minutes. So US better be careful whom she takes on

And Russian military forces would be annihilated right back.

This isn't a video game. In the "real world" two military Powers go to war.. both could be very easily cause great damage to one another.

War is not one-sided, no one is indestructible..

After they clean the Air,which would be a walk in the park for the US,ground troops would move in.In a conventional war Russia would just be mopped up.The nukes are their life line.

As for naval battle.....lol

No power in the world can destroy Russia.
USA all barking and no biting since cold war ages

I think you forgot the collaps of the SOviet Union.

I was responding to "Clear signs that the US is not in control. When a top general starts behaving like a monkey and hurling cheap words you know things are bad. Very bad."

General Sahub is only trying to make US relevant in the inevitable global power shift context. What to speak of Russia or China they can't even take on North Korea.

 

[xenon54 out]

Erdoğan steps in to end US-Russia tension

You gotta give it him though, he still has the face to play the negotiator.

Perhaps it's true if Russia was alone but Russia isn't. The US would be fighting against both Russia and China at the same time.

No, he plays the "an eye for an eye" role
